AltStreet Analysis
·Generated from EDGAR primary sources
Ares Private Equity Secondaries I LP is a Delaware-domiciled pooled investment fund vehicle, part of Ares Management's private equity secondaries strategy, filing an amended Form D. The amendment reports $1,150.5 million raised from 14 investors under the 506(b) exemption combined with the 3(c) investment company exclusion, with no minimum investment amount disclosed on the filing.
This is a large institutional private equity secondaries fund vehicle, a common structure in the alternative investment space that pairs Securities Act Rule 506(b) with an Investment Company Act 3(c) exclusion — standard for private funds sold to accredited/qualified investors. At over $1.1 billion raised across just 14 investors, the average commitment size (~$82 million) is well above typical retail or smaller institutional offerings, consistent with a large closed-end secondaries vehicle drawing capital from a small number of institutional limited partners.

Grouped from Form D issuer names (generation, sleeve, jurisdiction and legal-form tokens removed); a name-only match, so abbreviated or renamed vehicles can be missed. Sold and investor figures are each vehicle's latest Form D; sleeves that report the same figure share one family-wide total and are counted once. Performance lines are what a public pension plan reports for its own interest in that fund, net, on the plan's cash flows and valuation date; they are not the general partner's figures.

Questions About ARES PRIVATE EQUITY SECONDARIES I LP
Each answer is built from the values on the SEC filing and the AltStreet ledger, not from the issuer's marketing.
What is ARES PRIVATE EQUITY SECONDARIES I LP?
ARES PRIVATE EQUITY SECONDARIES I LP is a Delaware limited partnership organized in 2024 that filed a Form D with the SEC on September 28, 2026 as a private equity fund. The filing claims Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(7) for an offering of pooled investment fund interests.
Is ARES PRIVATE EQUITY SECONDARIES I LP legit?
AltStreet does not rate legitimacy; it reports the public record. ARES PRIVATE EQUITY SECONDARIES I LP filed a Form D with the SEC on September 28, 2026 claiming Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(7). A Form D is a notice of an exempt offering, not a review or approval of it. The newest notice reports $1,150,479,935 sold to 14 investors. AltStreet's enforcement record (SEC, FINRA and state actions) shows no action naming the issuer as of today. Before investing, confirm the filing on EDGAR, check the seller's registration on FINRA BrokerCheck, and read the offering documents, which a Form D does not include.
Is ARES PRIVATE EQUITY SECONDARIES I LP registered with or approved by the SEC?
No. A Form D is a notice that an issuer is selling securities under an exemption from registration, and the SEC does not review, approve, or pass on the merits of the offering. The filing shows that ARES PRIVATE EQUITY SECONDARIES I LP claimed Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(7) and disclosed the items the form requires, such as the amount sold, the minimum investment, related persons, and anyone paid to sell the securities. It does not verify the issuer's claims or its business.
